Hello everyone, new member here.

Have just bought my other half's '01 MR2 off her and intend to give it a bit of TLC and use it as a weekend track / B road car.  Plans are as follows, after handling rather than outright pace, and within a reasonable budget.

4x New Toyo Proxes T1R on the standard 15" Wheels, which are in dire need of a refurb.

TTE Springs

4 Wheel Alignment, Tracking, Camber, Setup etc (any particular reccomended settings?)

And a service, cambelt etc.


Any other areas to be reccomended to particularly look at / spend money on?  Will the standard brakes cope with a track day?

Cheers,

Paul

Bracing, fresh dampers, stickier tyres.

Brakes should be up to it.
